roasted orange bell pepper soup

by Jackie Newgent | November 22, 2018 | 3 Comments

I love pureeing a vegetable soup to make it creamy … no actual cream required! This is one of my go-to recipes for that. It gets extra velvetiness from white beans. Beyond the creaminess, you’ll adore the scrumptious balance of sweet and savory here. The roasting of the peppers gives it depth of flavor. And you’ll love that this soup can do double-duty; use it as a colorful (and nutrient-rich) gravy. The vivid deep-orange color is lovely! Note: The theme for this month’s Recipe Redux is “Souper Soups on the Move.”

Do you have one of those recipes that you make over and over and over again? Here’s one of mine! I thought it was time that I shared it! Huevos rancheros is a traditional Mexican meal ideally served mid-morning. Unfortunately, it can fall into the not-so-good-for-you category. So, what can you eat if you want all of its comfort but not its excess bad fats and sodium? This brunch salad! It’s so flavorful, satisfying, and simple—and perfect for any time of day and any time of year. Use any seasonal veggies you like in place of the grape tomatoes and frozen organic corn. And if you prefer to go vegan, swap pinto or black beans in place of the fried...

A roast doesn’t have to be made with meat … especially when you’ve got an eggplant roast with tahini sauce on your plate! This 100% plant-based roast is inspired by the concept of a meaty roast as well as the eggplant dip, baba ghanoush. The result is basically deconstructed baba ghanoush! But it looks and acts as a roast that you carve. How’s that for a vegan dish with wow!

I’m a New Yorker! Well, at least I’ve been one for the past 20 years! And I couldn’t be a “real” New Yorker if I didn’t appreciate pizza. So, appreciate pizza I do. This autumn-inspired, Meatless Monday-friendly version is no exception! Not only are these scrumptious slices loaded with seasonal farmers’ market goodies, they’re full of good-for-your gut benefits. (As luck would have it, “good gut health” is this month’s Recipe Redux theme, too!) This recipe is rich in prebiotics—which feed friendly bacteria in the gut. Since gut health is connected to immunity, enjoying this pizza wouldn’t be the worst way to try to fend off a cold or flu this season! Once you bake up this pizza, make it...
